only problem is that the reverse lights dont always stop on-new switch required i think

You could try tapping the gear lever back slightly, but a switch is cheap enough, no more than 20 quid.

am well chuffed wiv it. wish we'd bought a disco to start wiv!!!

ave sorted the difflock out-looks like a previous owner has changed the pin thingy for a nut and bolt at end of the shaft(with the lever on) n it came loose-cleaned and greased everywhere n used same bolt but wiv a new nyloc on n its a lot better now. also changed all those rivets for self tappers so its easier next time i need to get under there!!

i'll get a switch off ebay when i get round to it-fink they bout a tenner on there

now its fixed i really need to go n get muddy!!

I got one from my local indie the other week for £4.50, try paddocks think they're 5 or 6 quid on there. easy job to do aswell.
